Registration Form
How to Register with Penguin Swim Team
To participate on the Penguin Swim Team (PST), you will need to complete the PST Registration material AND register for USA Swimming on the “Swim Connection” website.
Step 1: Register for Swim Connection/USA Swimming
1) Go online to SwimConnection at www.swimconnection.com
2) On the bottom of the screen click on Sierra Nevada Swimming
3) On the next page, click on Register now! (close to the bottom in blue).
4) Fill out all of the information fields on this page. For Step 3 on this page – Team Affiliation -you should select “PST”. Click on the “register” button near the bottom of the page to finish.
5) When your account is set up you will receive a confirmation email which is necessary for the next step.
6) Open your email and find the “Please activate your membership at SwimConnection” message. Here you will find a web link which you must follow in order to complete the membership process – click it. After the click, you may be sent directly to the SwimConnection, and are looking at a blue “login” button. If so, click it and continue following directions below.
Otherwise, in a web browser, go back to the SwimConnection home page (http://www.swimconnection.com) and choose Sierra Nevada Swimming (just like step 2). Select the yellow “Login” link just below the “club pages” logo.
7) Now you can log in with your new member name and password (click the “login” button when ready)
8) On left of ‘My Account’ page choose “NEW/RENEW SWIMMER REGISTRATION”
9) Click on New Swimmer Registration and follow directions. Repeat this step for each swimmer you are registering. The cost is $72.00 for year-round swimmers, and $44.00 for seasonal (Sept. 1st – Jan. 15th) . If you are registering your child after the 1st of September, and your child will be swimming at any time during the following year, it is cheaper to sign up as a year-round swimmer because the registration will be valid until the end of the following year.
10) Print a copy of the completed on-line registration to submit to PST with your PST registration forms. Expect 4-6 weeks for your registration card to arrive. Please keep a copy of the USA registration receipt for meet entry & proof of registration.
Step 2: Complete the PST Registration form
Click on this form for a copy of the current registration forms.
Only one registration form is required per family. It is very important that we have cell phone numbers in case of an emergency as well as parents’ email address to notify families of emergencies or pool closures.
Please consult with the head coach as to which group they will be swimming in. Dues are determined by their group placement.
Step 3: Annual PST Registration Fee
All families must pay the Yearly PST Registration Fee of $100.00.
Step 4: Fill out the Consent to Treat form for each swimmer.
Please complete the attached “consent to treat” form and return with registration. We must
keep current insurance information on file. Please remember to let us know if it should
change.
Step 5: Return Forms
Return all completed forms and payment for your first month’s dues and yearly PST Registration
Fee. These can be returned either by mail to: Penguin Swim Team
P.O. Box 404
Grass Valley, CA 95945
OR they can be placed in the file folder marked PST DUES, located in the file box at the pool
office. Monthly dues and annual registration fee can be paid together on one check.
